Planning Advisory Committee

If you are looking to build or renovate a home, add a garage or fence, or run a business in Quispamsis, you may need to confirm your plans through the town’s Planning Advisory Committee, also known as the PAC.

PAC plays a critical role in the ongoing development of Quispamsis as a community. It is a citizen-lead committee appointed by Quispamsis Town Council, as required under the New Brunswick Community Planning Act.

The PAC makes recommendations to Council on planning-related matters, like proposed subdivision developments, property rezoning, municipal plan amendments, and zoning amendments.

PAC authorizes variances, including construction setbacks for property owners, temporary use variances and home occupations.
